Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A mobile terminal, comprising: a display; a wireless communication processor configured to transceive data with a drone and an external device through wireless communication; and a controller configured to: display a mobile terminal graphic object corresponding to the mobile terminal, an external device graphic object corresponding to the external device, a drone control menu object and a camera control menu object on the display, assign the external device to control the drone in response to the external device graphic object and the drone control menu object being selected, assign the external device to control a camera on the drone in response to the external device graphic object and the camera control menu object being selected, assign the mobile terminal to control the drone in response to the mobile terminal graphic object and the drone control menu object being selected, assign the mobile terminal to control the camera on the drone in response to the mobile terminal graphic object and the camera control menu object being selected, display a drone control interface on the display including: a drone control graphic object including controls for controlling a flight of the drone and including at least one of a first user indicator when the mobile terminal is assigned to control the drone and a second user indicator when the external device is assigned to control the drone, and a camera control graphic object including controls for controlling the camera of the drone and including at least one of the first indicator when the mobile terminal is assigned to control the camera and the second indicator when the external device is assigned to control the camera, control the flight of the drone in response to the controls of the drone control graphic object being selected, and control the camera of the drone in response to the controls of the camera control graphic object being selected.
2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to: remove the assignment of the mobile terminal from controlling the drone in response to a removal of the first user indicator from the drone control graphic object and remove the assignment of the external device from controlling the drone in response to a removal of the second user indicator from the drone control graphic object, and remove the assignment of the mobile terminal from controlling the camera in response to a removal of the first user indicator from the camera control graphic object and remove the assignment of the external device from controlling the camera in response to a removal of the second user indicator from the camera control graphic object.
3. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to: share control of the camera on the drone between the mobile terminal and the external device in response to the first user indicator and the second user indicator being included with the camera control graphic object.
4. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the drone control interface further includes: a chat object for performing a chatting session with a user of the external device, at least one connected device object indicating the external device connected with the mobile terminal and the drone, and a gallery object including images captured by the camera.
5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the controller is further configured to: display a gallery interface including at least one thumbnail image corresponding to an image or video taken through the camera in response to a selection of the gallery object.
6. The mobile terminal of claim 5 , wherein the controller is further configured to: display a real-time preview on the gallery interface indicating a real-time view of images obtained by the camera.
7. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to: receive a drone control request from the external device for changing a flight direction of the drone, and change the flight direction of the drone in response to the received drone control request.
8. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to: display a single user mode graphic object for the mobile terminal controlling the drone and the camera alone and a multi user mode graphic object for selectively allowing other external devices to control the drone and the camera.
9. The mobile terminal of claim 8 , wherein the controller is further configured to: display the mobile terminal graphic object and the external device graphic object, in response to a selection of the multi user mode graphic object, and transmit a drone connection signal to the external device in response to a selection of the displayed external device graphic object.
